question

[nick111]

I need a new C2D Asus board, I will not be overclocking and don't need Raid. I have a video card already and I want onboard sound. I was thinking of the P5B Deluxe WiFi. Do you think this board is overkill? If so which board then? Asus preferably.

How about the plain vanilla P5B? Not a great overclocker, no firewire, but it's $70 cheaper than the WiFi. Or perhaps the P5B-E?

Would you consider Gigabyte or Abit? Both are excellent board makers and offer C2D compatible boards on par with Asus. Check out the Gigabyte GA-965P-S3 if you're willing to stray from Asus.
